HERNANDEZ DURAN, Daisy; RUIZ LORENTE, Raiza; DIAZ MITJANS, Orlando  and  AGUILAR ISLA, Sandra. Ovary malignant synchronous tumors and endometrium. Rev Cubana Obstet Ginecol [online]. 2017, vol.43, n.3, pp. 157-162. ISSN 1561-3062.

The primary synchronous malignant ovarian and endometrial tumors are rare and they are reported in around 5 %. They can have very good prognosis when they are early detected. The aim of this paper is to inform the scientific community the case of a patient with concurrent malignant tumors of ovarian and endometrial infrequent. We present a 67 year old female patient, multiparous, white skin color, who was diagnosed with an endometrial adenocarcinoma. In the course of surgery, a solid ovarian tumor was found. Her histopathologic diagnosis yielded a granulose-cell tumor. Synchronous ovarian and endometrial tumors appear to have a better prognosis and survival when they are low grade and diagnosed at early stages.

Keywords : granulosa tumor; endometrial adenocarcinoma; synchronous tumors.
